    Abstract: A preexisting voltage across a sensor is latched to a storage capacitor prior to any excitation current being applied to the sensor. Once the excitation current is applied, the voltage on the storage capacitor is directly subtracted from a differential voltage across the sensor. The subtraction is done before a measurement is converted to a digital value and passed to a transmitter. The subtraction is performed in hardware, and a time required to sample and hold the preexisting voltage across the storage capacitor is within a settling time used for collecting any sensor measurements.

    Abstract: A process temperature transmitter is operable with at least one temperature sensor having a plurality of leads. The temperature transmitter includes measurement circuitry operably coupleable to the at least one temperature sensor to provide an indication of an electrical parameter of the at least one temperature sensor. A controller is coupled to the measurement circuitry to obtain the indication and provide a process temperature output. A current source applies a test current to the plurality of leads simultaneously. Diagnostic circuitry measures a voltage response on each lead in order to provide a diagnostic indication of the temperature sensor.
